Soothill died on Tuesday 14 May 1935.
His funeral was held at the Wesley Memorial Church in Oxford on Friday
17 May and he was interred at Rose Hill Cemetery. His grave is approximately
40 metres
WNW of the cemetery chapel. It is marked by a simple rectangle of low
granite kerbs, engraved as below. The letters are inlaid with lead, but
about half of the inlays have fallen out, and the kerbs have sunk below their original level
so that the inscriptions are partly obscured.

The first occupant of the grave was
Soothill's wife Lucy, four years his elder, who died at the age of 74
and was buried on 30 March 1931.
